I would play Daily in the Centre of Mid with 1 up front and Yossi down the centre. Brum have struggled against that system at home

Tonights game is MASSIVE! :shock:

This game gives us the chance to keep touch with the top 8 and start to form a gap from the rest a little bit of breathing space is much needed going into Xmas

Not at all comfortable with tonights game.
A draw would be ok methinks.
Blackburn and Everton are also very difficult games for us.
4 pts from these 3 would be useful as far as I'm concened.

We are nowhere near as good as people make out and this little period before and around Xmas will shape our season.

According to the Sky Sports Mobile (which I assume is a cut-down SSN feed) broadcast I watched - Pards is even apprehensive about this one, saying it's "not the right time to be playing them", f*** that, let's do them brummie arseholes and their bent-nosed muggy prick that defies belief ever fits the term 'manager'. Let's go for it. 2-0 Irons, I hope, and possibly the strongest away performance of the season.

COME ON YOU IRONS!!!

one fine morning.... wrote:would anyone else play just one striker? play two holding players, giving Benayoun a free role behind Harewood. Noble's passing would also then get a bit more protection.

GK) Carroll
RB) Repka
LB) Konchesky
CB) Gabbidon
CB) Ferdinand
RM) Noble
LM) Etherington
DM) Mullins
DM) Dailly
AM) Benayoun
CF) Harewood
I like the sound of that. The more we can get Yossi on the ball the better.

Totally agree with all that, particularly the highlighted bit.

But we're still better than Ajax right now. 8-)

A bit concerned about tonight, Birmingham realise the importance of this game and I think the fans and players will be up for it.

I reckon Dailly will replace Noble to add a bit of experience to the side. Other than that I can't see many other changes being made. I would consider dropping teddy to the bench and letting Bobby have a run out.

Heart says 1-2 west Ham win. Head says 1-1 draw.

Some would say that Birmingham have a better squad on paper...

However, Im going for 1-0 West Ham, Marlon to score.
This fixture has a very special place in my heart, for it was November 1st 1975 that I witnessed my first Hammers match, at St Andrews. They scored first, Trevor Francis, I think, and we came back to batter 'em 5-1. I can't remember who scored all of our goals, but I think Alan Taylor got at least one with Sir Trev bagging another.

As you will notice from the time of the post, I'm unable to make it this evening due to work commitments, but I'd settle for that result again !
